SUMMARY:3rd i Films co-presents at the SF Green Film Festival
DESCRIPTION:Powerless\nFahad Mustafa and Deepti Kakkar\, India\, 2013\nEnglish and Hindi with English subtitles.\nSneak Preview. \nWhen: Saturday\, June 1\, 6:30 pm\nWhere: New People Cinema\, Japantown\, SF \nWould you risk your life to flip a switch? In Kanpur\, India\, putting oneself in harm’s way to deliver electrical power is all too common\, especially for Loha Singh. He earns his living by giving electricity to those who can’t afford it\, splicing lines from paying utility customers. While an admirable feat against the Goliath power company that charges well beyond reasonable fees to the people of Kanpur\, Loha’s actions perpetuate the problems of the city by lessening the power supply — an amount that is distributed based on the number of paying customers. The situation intensifies for both parties and feeds into a vicious cycle of supply and demand. Somewhere in the middle of this battle is Ritu Maheshwari\, the power company’s woman-in-charge\, caught between two sides that do not share her understanding that change comes slowly and in increments. Powerless sheds light on the opposing corners of this political ring\, from Singh’s electrical Robin Hood\, tapping wires for neighbors\, to the myopic utility company whose failure to understand economics forces it deeper into financial disarray. This vibrant exposé gives a whole new meaning to the words “power struggle.” \nFor more information on the programs and to purchase tickets\, please visit the SF Green Film Festival website.

SUMMARY:3rd i presents "Bollywood Divas"
DESCRIPTION:Bollywood Divas: Queering Desi Cinema\nby Kareem Khubchandani and Anuj Vaidya \n\nWhen: June 8 (Saturday)\, 7pm\nWhere: ATA\, San Francisco\nCost: $10 online; $12 at the door\n(online ticket sales at: bollywooddivas.brownpapertickets.com) \nAn evening of satire\, comedy and drop-down drag Bollywood ‘ishtyle’!! \nIn Khubchandani’s LESSONS IN DRAG\, Professor Lahore Vagistan\, a drag queen attempting to make it from the Chicago Stage to the Bollywood Screen\, educates her classroom about the day’s topic\, Fillum. By combining ethnographic interviews\, works of fiction by queer South Asian novelists\, comedic drag sequences inspired by Bollywood\, and improvised audience interaction\, Kareem stages the many ways in which film becomes a tool of survival for marginal subjects. \nVaidya’s BAD GIRL WITH A HEART OF GOLD finds the artist in conversation with his own film of the same name. The performance explores the genealogy of the vamp in Bollywood — from her origins in the Jewish stars of early Indian cinema and culminating in the iconic roles of the anglo-Indian actress Helen in the 60s and 70s. The performance weaves many of Helen’s signature roles together to pose the question: Can Helen escape her perpetual death by Bollywood? \nPresented in collaboration with the APICC’s United States of Asian America Festival and QCC’s National Queer Arts Festival \nThis program was supported by:\n

SUMMARY:3rd i is honored to co-present at Frameline37
DESCRIPTION:3rd i is honored to co-present CHUPPAN CHUPAI / I AM GAY AND MUSLIM at  Frameline37\, the San Francisco International LGBT Film Festival. \nWhen: Friday\, June 21\, 9:30 PM\nWhere: Roxie Theater\, San Francisco\n3117 16th Street\, San Francisco\, CA \nChuppan Chupai director Saad Khan in person.  \n \nThese two docs— one set in Pakistan and the other in Morocco — challenge viewer preconceptions about being both Muslim and gay. \nI AM GAY AND MUSLIM \n“My sexuality doesn’t harm my religion. I am Muslim and my sexuality keeps me Muslim.” With these words\, one of the subjects of I Am Gay and Muslim gives lie to the idea that being gay and being Muslim are antithetical to each other. Director Chris Belloni follows several young men in Morocco\, all of whom try to reconcile their multiple identities as gay\, as Muslim\, and as Moroccan. Though homosexuality is illegal in Morocco there is still space for gay men to live and love one another\, and some\, like 21 year-old Rayan\, do so openly. His and the other stories on display in this beautiful portrait of Moroccan gay culture explode the myths about what it means to be gay and to live in the Muslim world.\n— MORDECAI STAYTON \nPreceded by CHUPPAN CHUPAI \nChuppan Chupai (Hide and Seek) follows the lives of four LGBT Pakistanis: activist Neeli\, flighty but “famous” Kami\, shy Waseem\, and Jenny\, a transgender woman who struggles with her transition. All live under the specter of Pakistan’s sharia laws forbidding homosexuality. Throughout the film\, their lives in the urban centers of Lahore and Rawalpindi are shown to be alternately joyous and painful— symptomatic of life around the world. \nMore info and tickets
